When her husband was killed on 9/11, Susan could have been paralyzed by loss. Instead, she acted on a simple impulse to counter hatred with outreach. Through a series of small but remarkable choices, she shows how compassion can bridge the differences between cultures and ideologies. It is impossible to hear her story and not be changed by it. Susan Retik is a Leadership Coach and the co-founder of Beyond the 11th, a non-profit dedicated to raising awareness and addressing the plight of impoverished Afghan widows. She's a winner of the Presidential Citizen’s Award, presented by President Barack Obama in 2010. Susan is the subject of the award-winning documentary film, "Beyond Belief". This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
